Collection: Embroidery Threads & Tapestry / Crewel Wool
Spinning Jenny stocks a (very) wide range of embroidery threads and tapestry / crewel wools.
Putting everything on line is a massive job when there are only two of us, and is a definite work in progress. Please, please, if you cannot find what you are after, do ring us - we may have it, just not listed. All the Appleton's shades are either available immediately or can be obtained within a week. Contact us directly if you need bulk stocks (for example for Cathedral Embroidery groups) from a single dye lot, or wish to discuss colours to match projects old or new.
We spend quite a bit of our time on thread matching for older projects, or for new and very personal designs. We have Appleton's shade card boxes that can be lent out, and we are very happy to match to threads you send us.
